Arlo Pro 2, HomeKit setup issues

[JamesC]

JLinden,

I've sent a token reset request to your base station that should resolve the issue. Please reboot your base station (remove and reapply power) allow the base station to come back online and try setting up HomeKit again using these instructions: How do I connect my Arlo camera to Apple HomeKit?

I too have the same issue, can I get a token?

Thanks JamesC, but unfortunately no improvement. Still no devices found under the HomeKit menu - frustrating as this worked perfectly before...

Thanks anyway,

I am having the same problems as others have reported. It started a week ago when suddenly HomeKit said their was no response from my cameras. They are working fine in the Arlo app. I have tried the setup HomeKit process in the Arlo app but it just hangs one. I have had no similar issues since Arlo became HomeKit compatible but now in the last 7 days I have. Does this mean my base station needs some sort of resetting effected remotely by Arlo?

James,

It appears I'm having the same issues as everyone else on this thread, can you send a reset token to my base station as well so I can get apple HomeKit connected?

Thanks

 I have done the above - left off power and rebooted and no change.

An odd situation though. On my iPad If I go to the HomeKit setup process it would start the process and the icon spins round and nothing ever happens. I had done an app delete and fresh install last Friday so the app was up to date. If I look on my iPhone and go to HomeKit setup it lists all my devices configured in HomeKit. Except the phone would tell me there is no response from my cameras when I access HomeKit.

I went back to the iPad and deleted the app again, did a fresh download and this time it lists the devices linked to HomeKit just as the iPhone does. But, a big BUT, or perhaps hooray! Now HomeKit shows the cameras as it used to.

Mt issue started shortly after the latest Arlo app update a few weeks ago. It seems a gremlin crept into the Arlo app. I installed the app on another iPad I have early last week and had the same issue right across all devices. 

I assume the power down and then power on of the hub, plus deleting the app and reinstalling has put it right. There is also the possibility that whilst the iPads and iPhone are on the same version of the IOS there is of course a slight variance to it for iPad use. I wonder if the conflict arose therefrom?

Anyway, all seems good now.

Thank you

With all these requests coming in, I just don't understand why Arlo did not consider yet issuing an Homekit code/token for the base unit like everybody else does for their accessories, this is not rocket science...

Especially, in this case where when we ask customer support, they do not even understand what we are asking them and why.

It’s not working. See attached photo, and I also have not heard from contacting email support.

[Palaqui]

Hi JamesC

Could I please also have a token reset sent please?

HomeKit won’t find any devices and everything is connected etc

Thank you!

[nate_ford]

Hey James, similar issues to everyone else. Can you send a token reset for mine too please.
Cheers!

I figured out the problem. It was an issue with how I wired my network.

[aberthil]

I need one after the support asked me to reset the smarthub. Now need to add it back into Homekit.

Thank you, let me know and will reboot to be able to move on
